Ive been working on it,so far so good.The clouds are from IL2 and the lighting is a lot of editing the ENVIRONMENTSYSTEM ini file.

At this point I have lost track of which terrain set I'm using.I have about four or five Vietnam terrains moshed together that I switch back and forth between.

I finally got the clouds from IL2 to look good in FE.I think they look freaking great.

Kinda like a painting.Very peaceful.

Did you add this information to the bottom of your Dr1 Configuration Settings ini file? [TextureSetxxx] Directory=Blue Max DR1 Name=Blue Max DR1 Nation=Germany Specular=0.400000 Glossiness=0.200000 Reflection=0.300000 Changing the x's to the next number in sequence of your textures for the Dr1. Are you sure you dropped the file into the right folder, this skin was made for the pre expantion Dr1 and the folder is named that,where as the the post expansion Dr1's folder is named Fokker Dr1 this skin will not work for the post expansion Dr1.Hope that helped. After a little further research on the matter I think that almost for sure you must have dropped the skin into the wrong folder.Here is another hint always edit your own ini Files that way your sure not to lose any skins you may have added.

It's up at the First Eagles download section in the environmental mods section.I hope it works for all of you.ENJOY!

File Name: IL2 clouds for First Eagles File Submitter: gumpy File Submitted: 13 Oct 2009 File Category: First Eagles Terrain and Environmental Mods Ok here it is IL2 clouds for First Eagles.It took some editing and some experimenting with different TARGA files to get this effect but I think it looks damn good.I made this mod using the first WideSky V1.0 mod by cellinsky available here and the CLOUD1 TARGA file came from Benders wonderful clouds mod for IL2 available at AAA,so I can't guarantee it will work with any of the other sky mods available here.If you want to use this and you are using a different sky mod you will probably have to revert back to WideSky V1.0.Thanks to cellinsky and Bender for their original mods and I hope they approve of this effect their combined mods creates for First Eagles.

I wish I knew how to mod planes this would be on top of my listHey Could Someone out there that knows how to mod take up the challenge of building the fokker D.VI?

Hopefully I can upload something in a day or two.It all depends on a couple of factors and then there is another thing. I got this to run on my system using the first WideSky mod available here, I'm not sure how many people are using this mod and would be willing to switch back to it or if it would even work on certain systems.All I can do is upload it,if able and let you folks try it.

I saw John Madden talking to former President Bush at the new Dallas stadium during the Sunday night game,you wouldn't think Madden would know that much about Burt and Ernie.
